Russian Winter
Krokus Lyrics

Across the border and down the plains
The bear and the tiger have traveled into unknown territory

The tiger meets the bear
The two opposing forces come face to face

No one is right, no one is wrong
Both sides believe they are justified in their actions

Nobody seems to care
The struggle between the bear and tiger is insignificant to those outside of it

They fight for power, they fight for lust
The bear and tiger are driven by their desire for power and domination

Spilling their blood on the dust
The conflict between the two has become violent and deadly

A thousand miles without names
The location of the battle is unimportant and unknown

Fear remains the same
Despite the distance and time that has passed, the fear remains constant

Russian winter, broken pass
The harsh environment adds to the danger and difficulty of the situation

Cold winds in the dark
The intense cold and darkness only amplify the already dire circumstances

The goose is loose and kills tonight
An additional threat has emerged and is causing more carnage

Full moon burning bright
The eerie and unsettling glow of the moon adds to the ominous atmosphere

Run for your life
The situation has become so dangerous that the only option is to flee

So, the bear and the tiger lost in the snow
The two have become lost and disoriented in the unforgiving winter landscape

Tashkent's far away
The hope of finding safety and shelter is still a long journey away

To feel the fire, to save the bear
The warmth of a fire is necessary to keep the bear alive and increase their chances of survival

Nothing can stand in his way
The artist will stop at nothing to save the bear

Five fields of death, it's hard to predict
The outcome of the battle is uncertain and both sides may face heavy losses

The battle the white emptiness
The desolate and barren winter landscape serves as the backdrop for the bloody conflict

The king on his throne is all alone
The leader of one of the factions is isolated in his power and potentially vulnerable

Will this madness go on
The senseless and destructive conflict has gone on for too long and the hope for peace is uncertain

Run for your life
The danger persists and the need to escape remains urgent

Run for your life
The situation is still dire and there is no time to waste

Run for your life
The fear and uncertainty drives the need for survival

Run for your life
The only way out is to keep running and hope for the best

Run for your life
The desperation continues as the struggle for survival persists

Run for your life
The repetition of this line underscores the urgency and danger of the situation
